Approximate Cost to Replace Cement Shower With Either Tile or Modern Stall?

My basement shower is basically just a cement slab with a drain and fiberglass walls. What's a rough ballpark cost estimate to tear out the cement shower and replace it with a modern glass stall and/or a tile shower?

Answer:

By cement slab you refer to the concrete basement floor with a drain in it? Nothing to tear out. A contractor will install a shower pan. Either custom made or a prefab pan and tie into the existing drain. If you want to relocate the shower then he will jack hammer up the slab and run the drain. Save money by having the shower in the same place. For just the shower pan and walls framed, covered with backer board, tile tie into existing hot and cold water supply figure about $4000. If you want to use custom materials like granite and limestone tiles add $1000. Also plan to install an exhaust fan for the steam. If you can be happy with a prefab fiberglass surround it will be half the cost.
